Just in case anyone missed that...

BTW, I don't know where the hell FarEasterner got the big idea that ET, a on-line forum for political and philosophical debate about the important issues of our time, is an acceptable venue for gossip about the sexual prowess of high profile leaders.  Sheesh. ;)  

(I kid, FE.  Happy whatever you're up to in India.)

Gossip about sexual prowess was meant to entertain you on Christmas.
And also to point to the fact that basically India's elite is essentially the same elite which ruled the country for hundreds if not thousands years. Yes there are exceptions (in India there are always exceptions notably big ones) like Mayawati or Lalu Prasad Yadav, self-made leaders, but they only prove the rule as they immediately start to promote their families into elitary circles.
Don't know whether preferences for sexual behaviour are in our genes or not, Bourbons were also known for typical behaviour softened, hidden (but not totally eradicated) by changing moral norms in adopted countries.
Few notes:
ISI - Pakistam's secret service.
SAD - Shiromani Akali Dal (Badal) - religious Sikh party which ousted Amarinder from power in March of 2007.
chief minister - prime minister of Indian state.
Punjab - northern Indian state on the border with Pakistan, with population more than 24 mln people, considered as a main food supplier, it also has developed industry. Punjab is the second by income-per-capita in India after Goa. Majority of population are Sikhs, followers of 10 gurus in 16-17 centuries who tried to combine Islam and Hinduism.
